The subject of the painting is an attorney who, due to the pandemic, moved his everyday business dealings from Midtown Manhattan to his home library. In this painting I chose to illustrate his apparently effortless success at retaining a foothold in normalcy during this unprecedented time. This is "A Day Like Any Other" as we see him and his handful of associates dealing with the day’s paperwork.

Not unlike the portrait’s subject, I feel fortunate that my own perspective remains largely unaffected by the year-long quarantine.
